Phantom X

A new mutant arrives at the Institute, okay that's normal, no biggie. But he has a twin and, guess what, that twin has no mutant powers whatsoever. But even though she's not a mutant she still has secrets of her own that could jeopardise the lives of the X-Men, and it all hits a little closer to home when she ends up falling for our favourite fuzzy elf.

Prologue

Lab lights blinked and every now and again a machine beeped. In the room, two men steadily monitored a human being that was suspended in some sort of fluid. The green liquid made her naked skin glow eerily in the fluorescent lighting and the many tubes attached to various places did nothing to make her look more appealing.

"She's almost ready," one of them said. Leaning heavily on his cane, he typed in a few commands. The machine whirred to life and the liquid inside began to drain out. One by one the tubes fell away from her body cutting of her support. As the last of them fell away, she fell to the bottom of her tank, still unconscious.

"You're certain she's ready to be released this early?" the other asked, looking at her closely as her eyes began to flutter open.

"Of course, I wouldn't dare risk it if I didn't think it was time," the elder of the two said. "Don't you have faith in me?"

"You have proven yourself thus far," he replied. "Let's hope you don't slip up."

The girl inside the tank moaned and sat up as the glass rose, releasing her from her cylindrical prison. As she stared up at the men before her she became aware that she was naked. Blushing profusely, she attempted to cover herself as best as she could with only her arms.

The older one limped over to her and tossed her a blanket. "Use this."

She clung to it tightly, staring up at them. "W-who are you? W-who am I?"

"I am called Magneto, child," the younger of the two said.

"And I am Vladimir Masters," said the other.

"A-and me?"

"And you, child," Magneto said, stepping forward and extending one hand to her. "You, will be my door to a new age."

Bright blue eyes shot open as Alexis jumped out of her restless sleep, sweating as if she had just run a marathon. She ran her hand through her damp hair, brushing away the strands of jet black hair that had stuck to her neck and shoulder.

She looked across the room at her brother sleeping in the bed just across the room. Quietly, she slipped out of bed and to her brother's side. She sat down at the edge of his bed, taking care not to disturb him, and made herself comfortable. She wrapped her arms around her knees and curled herself into a ball.

Sighing, she tried to close her eyes and drift back off to sleep but the dream had shaken her and she was too tense to sleep. She shook her head. What was that dream about anyway? It had been years since the dreams had stopped, why were they coming back all of a sudden?

A soft groan alerted her that something was wrong with her brother and when she looked down she realised that her hand had been playing with his hair without her even realising it.

She stilled her hand for a moment and he seemed to relax, drifting back into deeper waters. She sighed and withdrew her hand once more, deciding instead to lean against the headboard.

"The door to a new age huh…?"

Hey there, this is my first story so please be nice. I've had this idea buzzing around in my head for a while now since I started looking at X-Men: Evolution again. Currently i'm up to season three so i've decided that these events will take place starting from that little point in time they never covered between season 1 and 2 up to about mid season 2. Long enough to cover the sirens episode at least, i loved that one.

So, be nice and leave reviews.
